All right. We'll go to the next question. Imagine that ten years from
now you are all teachers at (SCHOOL NAME DELETED). (LAUGHTER) All right. You
love your school and you want to do a great job for the students. What will
your teaching be like? |
| 7: |
I would make it so hard that only two or three would ever pass me. I would
try my best to be like Miss (NAME DELETED). |
| 12: |
I would make it hard, and I would make sure the children learned. |
| 8: |
Yeah, Miss (NAME DELETED). She was kind of...she made...she made it interesting. |
| __: |
It was like... |
| 12: |
I wouldn't make it so hard that they couldn't learn it, just make it hard,
Here it is, you can do it. |
| __: |
Like zoology. |
| 12: |
Right. Just explain it to them, and if I know that they know it, then
if they don't pass it, then fail them. But if they don't know it and if the
child doesn't know it and it's not their fault, then try to teach them and
try to sit down with them and help them learn it, because if they don't know
it what are they going to do? It's the teacher's job to do that, not make
a class hard but make sure the children learn. |
| F: |
Okay. (NAME DELETED). |
| 10: |
I don't know. I would try to make it fun for them. I wouldn't let them
do whatever they wanted to do, but I would teach and I would try to make the
learning fun for them so that they would want to learn and so they would want
to be in school, because most people, I know right now I hate school. I hate
school so bad, and I wouldn't want that for...for the students in my class. I would want them to
like school and be there, want to learn and stuff. |
| F: |
Okay. (NAME DELETED). |
| 9: |
I'd make them get in there and I wouldn't be really hard on them. |
| F: |
(NAME DELETED). |
| 8: |
I would want to get my students interested. I...I don't want to be so hard
and stuff to where I get up there and they just get bored to death and don't
want to listen any more. I would want to be interesting so they would want
to be there and want to learn and they don't dread coming to class or anything,
but yet they still learn something. |
| F: |
(NAME DELETED). |
| 7: |
I would have to be different. I would want to make it a little bit hard
so they would take their books home and actually study. (INAUDIBLE) be a lot
of classes like that. Miss (NAME DELETED), I never took a book home because
she taught it so well. And I would...I'd like to go beyond that. |
| F: |
Okay. (NAME DELETED). |
| 6: |
Umm... I'd just make it interesting because it would be easier for the
students to learn that way, because they would want to learn it and...enjoy
learning. |
| F: |
(NAME DELETED). |
| 5: |
I would find some way to get them involved, like a hands-on project, because
I find that if I'm actually dealing with something I'll learn it better, and
I don't think if you take home a book and you do questions you're going to
get anything out of that. You're going to remember an experience you had personally. |
| F: |
(NAME DELETED). |
| 4: |
I would teach it so that I thought that they could catch on, but I would
be nice enough to them to let them know if they ever needed me, like to help
them extra or just needed me for anything, that I would be there for them. |
| F: |
(NAME DELETED). |
| 3: |
I'd try to make it understandable because most of what teachers talk about
is gibberish, you don't understand the first clue, and they take it for granted
that you already know things that you really don't know. |
| F: |
Okay. (NAME DELETED). |
| 1: |
I would involve more one-on-one activities and stuff, like (NAME DELETED)
said, get them involved, and then tell them to come with me, come to me if
they needed help and just try to teach it to the best of my ability, and try
to help them any way that I could. |
